[quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]There are two things I would like to comment on as a conservative.

1.  Breitbart is the right's equivalent to Mother Jones or HuffPo.  No one takes them as serious journalists. Congratulations to the posters here that figured it out.

2.  This "battery" charge is a joke.  Unwanted touching by another person is technically a battery.  I get batteried in the Metro every day.  This so-called "reporter" needs to put her big girl pants on if she wants to be an aggressive beat reporter.  Also, from looking at the video, I don't see where she was "almost pushed to the floor".  The anti-Trumpers are getting desperate I guess.  This charge will get laughed out of court.

This Michelle Fields also has her name involved in the Ted Cruz affairs story.  I'm guessing she likes attention or is some kind of nut job.[/quote]

Breitbart made painstaking efforts to create a false alibi for Lewandowski. That is far more extreme that anything Mother Jones or the Huffington Post would do. Please don't engage in false equivalence.

Regardless of your opinion about the seriousness of the assault, the reporter's arm was bruised. If it was such a minor incident, Lewandowski would have had no reason to deny that it happened and could have easily resolved it with an apology. Instead he called Fields "deranged". I note you seem to share that attitude regarding her mental state. For that matter, you seem to share much of the attitude demonstrated by Trump and his campaign towards women. Maybe that is why Trump's negatives with female voters is at atmospheric levels?

The icing on the case of this story is that Lewandowski is being represented in the case by a lawyer who had to resign as a federal prosecutor after biting a stripper. I know that violence towards women is a frequent campaign issue these days. However, it is unusual for candidates to seemingly be in favor of it.

If your job is to move people away from the candidate and you do it often, you probably don't remember the incident. Video shows how minor it was - he should deny assessing her because he didn't. She acts like a battered woman - she's not.

And don't ask me to feel badly for a stripper[/quote]
